The PS/3 turns supercomputer

Dr. Frank Mueller, professor of Computer Science at North Carolina State University, definitely knows how to get more out of his Playstation 3.  In this case, he clustered eight of them to create a pretty beefy 64-logical-processor super-computing cluster.  He estimates that it would only take 10,000 PS/3's to create the world's fastest computer.

I'm in love. 

(No, with the super-computing cluster, not with Dr. Mueller!)
